Titleā€ƒ CIFF Analysis Tool

Summary

The CIFF Analysis Tool calculates farmland within an area of interest (AOI). The tool takes an area drawn on the map and intersects it with the CIF Most Recent layer. The output is a polygon and a table summarizing the intersection.


Usage

The CIFF Analysis Tool analyses the intersection of an area of interest (AOI) and the CIF Most Recent layer. A point, polyline, or polygon can be drawn on a map as the AOI. A buffer can be specified for the AOI, the default buffer value is 1 US survey mile. The tool will output a polygon displaying the intersected area and a table detailing statistics of the intersected values. The table must be downloaded or added to the Attribute Table widget to view.
